Is there a way to get the time spent in request queue in Kestrel/ASP.NET Core?

My understanding is that ASP.NET Core middleware is run when a request is ready to be processed. But if the app is under load and ASP.NET Core can not process all the requests as they come in, they are put in a "queue" somewhere? I don't know whether this is some managed queue inside Kestrel or whether it has something to do with libuv.

I would like to be able to know how long a given request is spent in this queue. Is there something on HttpContext that can tell me this?

Thanks in advance

This question is not that easy.

If you want to track all of the times, you have to do a lots of steps. At the beginning add a unique stamp or the ticks to the requests, so you can identify them one by one. Second, create a handler, which intercepts your requests and logs the times. Third, add a logging point to every request related method. Fourth - this will be a surprise - you can't do anything big to reduce this time expect the configuration of IIS regarding threading, parallel requests, session handling, etc. Fifth - if your browser measures 2000 ms, your server measures 200 ms, it's not the .NET core, its your code/architecture/config. Sorry to tell you bad news.

Use the System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch class to measure the time.
